Obsession Problem

OK, I know that this dress has dots all over it, but it's not in any specific pattern, so that doesn't technically count as another polka dot dress, right?  Right?

{Dress: Bar III (old), Shoes: Nine West, Necklace: Target, Bracelets: Alex and Ani, Nordstrom}

It's obvious I have an obsession.  You guys don't even want to know how many polka dotted things I own.  It's sick.  But look, this dress has pockets and it's colorful.  How could I say no?  And it's super light-weight, which means it's perfect for this summer heat.  Have I convinced you yet?  Happy shopping!

If having almost everything in your closet have some type of polka dot is wrong, I don't want to be right!!

Daria said...

:D I think it's ok, you're allowed to wear it. It doesn't really look like a polka dot dress hahaha! It looks great on you, especially with the necklace!

sbl said...

yeah I don't think this counts, because you can't tell it is dots- ;)))) it looks like the most beautiful pattern. I love how you paired it with that yellow necklace, it brings out the yellow dots in the dress, and its just so perfect. You look so gorgeous!!! xx

Kathleen Lisson said...

OK. I love the dress. You know we are both polka dot fanatics. But I'm pretty sure my fiance would tell me it was polka dotted. I don't think men realize the true polka dots have to be equidistant to one another in a defined pattern! There's a difference, which means this dress should be allowed into our closet because it's not "exactly the same as all the other dresses we own." Ha ha ha!

Always Maylee said...

Haha, I like the way you think!! :)

Katie- Hems for Her said...

It totally doesn't count as a polka dot dress (so you are safe there), but it totally does count as a totally precious dress (and you can never have too many of those!) :)

Laura said...

That dress is so cute! I love that it's a polka dot print, but it's not the standard because the pattern is much more abstract/askew than the traditional evenly spaced dots - perfect way to indulge in an obsession without having a duplicate of the same thing! :)

Dee said...

I have a sick amount of polkadottet (oh, and ribbons) too, so I totally know the feeling XD Your dress is so nice:)

It's okay to have an obsession with dots. I have a serious obsession with all things nautical. You should see how heavily blue and white my closet looks. Obsessions are totally fine. Dots could be your signature thing!

Genie said...

I agree, this dress is perfect for the summer with tonz of color as well as polka dots! Though not traditional, I can see why you had to have it. The cut is perfect for your silhouette, and those heels add just the right amount of neutral to this outfit.
